Good catch @vaper1960, serial and parallel are the wrong way around.
Thank you... I didn't change anything EXCEPT swithed from single coil to dual coil and noticed this. My browser is "chromium" (basically Linux version of Chrome)
Some of you have "highjacked" my thread... no worries, learning so much... don't mind at all.

@Vape Muppet, wonder if the bubble and the extension for the Expromizer V4 is made from the same or different plastic?

Could possibly be a tank cracking issue?

No idea to be honest. I have just seen the 4ml Bubble glass 10 packs on Heaven's Gifts, so maybe they're just late rolling them out. In theory other bubble glass should fit. Might take a look at the one from the EHPro True I have.

I have quite a few rtas and like everyone in it's own way. While some shine in one way, others shine in another. I love the darvws, but for a new rebuilder, it may not be the easiest to set up. Another nice rta is the new kfl, especially its compactness, but kayfuns can be a little tricky wicking. One rta that has very good flavor and imo is the easiest to set up and wick is the doggystyle rta. I think this is a perfect rta to start with....I honestly cant seem to ever do a bad wick job in it..

Which Doggy do you like best for MTL?

Sxk 2k16. I believe it has a 1.6mm af which can be reduced a little from the af ring. For 10 bucks or so, it's a darn good rta. Because it's a gta style rta, the wicking doesnt have to be perfection, so its extremely forgiving and flavor is a very nice saturated vape.....the only cons are one, the af ring is kind of cheapy, not that it doesn't stay, it's just not much in fine adjustments. The other is the tank can be a little sticky to get off if you overtighten it. If you do overtighten, it easy, as you can insert something into the af. To gain leverage. I haven't tried the sxk 2k18 or is it 19, but it's the newer top fill model...

I am so done with drop in coils! So many issues... clogs, "burnt" taste, quality control. I did buy some once on e-bay (yes I was warned) and not surprised I got some bad ones, but now my brand new authentic coil failed.
I need a small RTA for MTL that will work with my small mod (Innokin EZ Watt) The mod only has three wattage ranges: 13-14, 16-18, and 30-35. Must have adjustable airflow (I do MTL but don't like overly restricted airflow, also like restricted DTL) I don't mind making my own coils, but would be nice if the RTA came with a few to get me started.
Be done with it and get a kayfun lite 2019 with extension tank. I have both the authenitic in 22mm and a sxk clone in 24mm no problems with either never leaks easy wicking. Its the only tank i use anymore for MTL.

The Ulton 1:1 from 2fdeal is pretty much exact from what I can tell from Todd’s videos. It isn’t as smooth as the authentic when removing the deck, I have to twist it some.

I also have little droplets juice seeping out from the connection between the deck & the tank. Strange as I’m not a newb when it comes to wicking. The only thing I think might help is if I can get a slightly thicker oring for the deck.

The flavor is fantastic on it.
The authentic tripods also have the same issue with droplets from the deck to tank.

I haven't heard of any authentic Tripod with that issue.

Neither one of my authentic Tripod's have an issue with droplets of juice leaking between the deck and tank sections (or any other section). I have one batch 1 bought shortly after its release and a batch 2 bought the day they were released. Both have had zero issues whatsoever and they have been in use since I received them.

I am a member of the Atmizoo private FB group and haven't heard of any issues or problems with the Tripod. There are hundreds in this group and many, if not most, own Tripod's. If there were any issues it would have been noted there as the Tripod was tested extensively by many before public release. Taz and company would have been on top of any problems very quickly.

If someone took one completely apart and did not put it back together properly then maybe.

Where did you see this? Do you have sources? :)

Im also a member of the atmizone FB group and a tripod owner their are a few posts on the FB group with the issue and others on FB groups I am a member of have the same issue. They say its from condensation build up and or your not closing the juice flow completely when filling the tank creating pressure.

I just popped a post up on the closed FB group asking for input from Tripod owners and from Taz as I am very curious. Perhaps you will post your experience or reply there? :)

I went back months and every single issue has been user related and not a design issue with the Tripod. :)

It is very misleading to all members to post in such a broad stroke that "The authentic tripods also have the same issue with droplets from the deck to tank."

So far only one of hundreds has replied and they had an issue with wicking plus a DT that wasn't screwed down tight (user related).

Cheers!!! :D

ETA: Your issue is user error not a design flaw with the Tripod.

How is it misleading its the same issue on the authentic its either condensation build up or their not closing the juice flow control when filling I never stated it was a design flaw. Im a member of the same group attached is the picture from the post in the group from aug 28th.

I'm just trying to fully understand exactly what you are saying and the issue you had. That's all. :) Your initial post reads as though this is common "Tripods" plural. It isn't ... is what Taz, others and myself are saying.

Thank you for posting the above photo I was able to find your FB post in the group with it. That's my wife's FB account I used btw lol. Nice stabwood mod too.

I agree with Taz that wicking should be checked/redone. The Tripod needs more wick than a KFL19, Prime, K5 or KM3. More wick in the juice wells is better with the Tripod. The Tripod is very forgiving with wicking. If the JFC isn't closed fully before filling you will get flooding/leakage/seepage.

Are you still experiencing that issue? Have you rewicked using more wick in the wells?
Just trying to be helpful. If you need help PM me. :)

I've honestly haven't experienced any issues with mine. I am the most curious person around and I like to know details in case I ever run across any type of issue. It's a learning thing for me.

From looking through the FB group posts this is rare but easily resolved with a couple steps.

Cheers my friend! :D

very nice collection that wasnt my post in the group I just wanted to show a example of the issue with a picture from the group. I had the issue with mine the juice flow control was not closing all the way when it was new but got it sorted out the tripod is a very nice tank at a very reasonable price point I would recomend it as its not crazy high priced very high quality and great support from the manufacturer.

How about getting with the programme?. Get a Berserker mini 1.5 and come on in for the big win.
I agree... was already one of my main choices.
Thank you for staying on topic... seems yet another one of my threads has been highjacked.

Too expensive for my budget. Any clones like that?
